It's a bug present in the Wacom driver in some versions of the Linux
kernel. I asked about it a few weeks ago and was pointed to the
following patch, which fixed it for me:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg10577.html

I don't use Ubuntu, maybe someone who does can report the bug so that
the fix can be applied to the current Ubuntu kernel?

Alexandros

Bonjour,

The problem is solved :

I've took the linuxwacom package for xserver < 1.7 even if my wserver i 
1.9 (command X -version)
compile with --enable-wacom
copy the wacom.ko file over the old one in 
/lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic/kernel/drivers/input/tablet/
reboot and everything's ok now

Hope it help

cordialement,

this means the kernel driver in maverik is buggy. you should probably file
this in launchpad so the kernel maintainers can apply the fix.
